Bayswater electorate
Jackson TAYLOR (Bayswater) (14:39): (12) I am so proud to have backed in local schools for the last four years, and I am stoked that I will not be slowing down anytime soon. My constituency question is to the Minister for Education. What are the next steps for the election promises we made to provide major upgrades to Bayswater South Primary, Kent Park Primary and St Joseph’s Primary? In the last term, I was stoked to deliver over $70 million in upgrades to our local schools to ensure kids and the teams there had the very best facilities to learn and grow in. And with the commitments the Andrews Labor government made last November, we will bring that total to around $90 million in upgrades. At Bayswater South Primary we are upgrading every classroom; at Kent Park Primary we will deliver a new playground, a synthetic running track and a new oval; and at St Joseph’s we will provide a major upgrade. I know locals and families are keen to further understand the next steps in delivering these projects, and I cannot wait to do exactly that.
